In the construction industry it has always been common knowledge: Concrete is present almost everywhere. Thanks to its diverse properties, the possible applications are almost unlimited.

But even away from construction, there are areas where concrete and cement are used that are hardly ever in view. Some people have already experienced first-hand that the dentist uses high-strength cement. But the fact that many baked goods, i.e. breads, buns, pizzas and the like, are often baked on fibreglass-reinforced concrete slabs is known to very few people.
